Wise app lo you can deposit usd and use it everywhere. Or any credit card with no fx fee

[NeneRajuNeneManthri]

Use credit cards which don’t have foreign transaction fee. 

[Googlie]

Apply for capital one or Apple Card or amex 

they are international fee free

Credit card international transaction charges anedi oka trap, don’t fall for it. 
 

Using credit card overseas especially India, charges emi lekunna exchange rate deggara solid lagestaru…for example, USD-INR is now 79.50 but credit card use chesthe exchange rate will be  2-3Rs less on an average…

Its better to use debit cards in local currency especially India.
